YOUR DONATION MAKES AN IMPACT
Your donation can have an immediate impact on someone’s life and make a difference to their future. Every dollar donated makes an impact with the homeless, the vulnerable and those in need.
It can give someone necessities today, such as a hot meal, clean clothes, and a safe place to stay for the night. It can help someone receive longer-term care for such things as drug and alcohol addiction, mental health counselling, help with sustainable housing and medical treatment.
Any size donation is welcome. Your gift will help us continue programs and develop new ones to help disadvantaged and homeless people in Toronto. Help us make a difference in someone’s life today, tomorrow and in the years to come.
